Following potential 2014 draftees

This is one of those posts where I try to discipline myself not to vent about stupidity, inbreeding amongst other stuff. The result of you wasting your own and everyone else's time is
1) you don't follow this thread. Don't discuss when you don't follow. Add but don't discuss.
2) you would be a worse GM than Isiah Thomas and Michael Jordan
Next time you make weird predictions at least offer your throught process, though I seriously doubt there was one in the first place.
You're welcome.

Hey dip****, the Jazz can pick up two more impact players in this upcoming draft and will probably have to move 2 or more of the 8 young players acquired in this next draft and recent drafts in order to manage expectations for minutes and for financial reasons. So it makes sense to spread the talent across all positions on the floor in order to maximize impact. The question the FO has to ask themselves is whether they prefer a rotation with Trey Burke plus Kanter/Favors, or whether they would be willing to move either Kanter or Favors to bring in an upgrade in the backcourt. I can all but guarantee that they'll be asking themselves this while they watch the young players progress this year. That's the thought process.

I do follow this thread and post in it regularly. Your comments about stupidity, inbreeding and Isaiah Thomas (who was a bad GM, but wouldn't normally be mentioned in the same sentence as inbreeding and stupidity) are off base.
 
I understand what Catchall is saying, but I don't want to give up Favors or Kanter for anything short of a top 3 pick in 2014. I like the idea of having twin towers too much. It's so hard to match up with over a 7 game series (assuming they both pan out pretty well, which I think they will).

For the record.. I was taking no position on the particular issue (s) but rather taking some exception with how BTP handled it.

Two good posters...

BTP was off base, totally. Catchall is by far one of the best here.

1) BTP has had multiple snippets of douchebaggery (I even neg-repped one of them from a week back or so). I personally don't consider his takes particularly thought-provoking to begin with-- and his condescending attitude renders it completely pedestrian for me.

2) Hilarious seeing BTP mention that Catchall (a really good poster) doesn't follow this thread, when he has posted in the last two renditions of the "Following Draftees" threads, and has 100x the library of good posts that BTP does.
 
I never understood the personal attacks

right now if I was gm this is what my team would look like after next draft assuming jazz pick #3, #20 (gsw) and trade burks and rush for a pick in the teens.

Parker
young
Harris

Burke, Neto
Hayward, Harris
Parker, young
kanter, Williams (mid level deal)
favors, Gobert
 
I stand on what I said.

Yes, BTP is a bit edgy and comes off a bit wtf? at times.. but I also think he has has some monstrously good observations/takes.

That last post tho was a doozy of a bad one.. ma boi Catchall is da real ****.

Well hopefully he learns to stave off unwarranted attacks, for his sake. Don't on giving his takes serious considerations, otherwise.

Ich habe keine Lust um diese BTP-Wutanfell zu lesen.

I always enjoy when people call out people on being condescending with an incredibly condescending post.

Even I'm not this bad.
 
Not to spoil the love-fest here, but Catchall compared Archie Goodwin to Michael Jordan and thinks Kevin Garnett would be the best SF of all time.

Not gonna lie-- one of the best Jazzfanz whiffs of all-time is seeing NUMB's Doomsday posts after Gordon Hayward was drafted ;)
